Regional Environmental Plan Georges River Catchment

Report

– Department of Urban Affairs and Planning

The Georges River Catchment has the potential to be adversely affected by a range of activities carried out on land within the Catchment. This Regional Environmental Plan (REP), prepared under the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 (EP&A Act), will influence the land use and environmental planning and management decisions taken where land within the Catchment is affected. This will happen when a council prepares a local environmental plan (LEP) or considers a development proposal or when a public authority plans an activity that is likely to affect the environment within the Catchment.
